Today we went to the doctor with my poor Keith man. Or as we affectionately call him now "Nubs". His finger looks way better than it did. Well, maybe to some people.
Here's what it looked like at his last appt. about 3 weeks ago.
Still pretty raw there. Keith was hiding under his jacket 'cause he didn't want to see it.
But today he says, "Guess what Mom, I think you'll be really surprised at how much it's healed."
So we take off the gauze and here is what it looks like. Yeah.
A bit gruesome, but a heck of a lot better, yes?. The reason it looks like that is because he has been soaking it and keeping it wrapped up. The doctor said not to soak it anymore and now just place a band-aid on it.
Keith is a just a tad freaked out since he hasn't used it for a while. But that will change. My only question is: Should I trim the nail or leave it be for now?
But I'm happy because he will be spending the next 2 days with us. It's his Spring Break this week. Yay!
I will post again soon. Bye for now!

It's a little scary...just a bit.
Well, Keith's appt. is tomorrow at 10am. I am a tad worried but intrigued as this will be the first that I will get to see Keith's owie without the bandage on it.
Oh yeah, 'cause I'm a sicko like that, I WILL take a few pictures this time.
Hopefully, they will just let it heal on its own. I may have to have Keith see his uncle-in-law, (is that a word?) since he also specializes in that field.
I really don't want Keith to have surgery if he doesn't need it.
I worry lots about my boy, it's not easy knowing he's hurting and I cannot just zip over to help.
But we shall see how this appt. goes. I will update soon, promise.
